Friday evening being very wet and dark and the attendance, ' in conseqrience, not very large. However, those who ventured out were well repaid, as a most pleasant time was enjoyed. The main 1 ature of the program was a debate: "Resolved, that woman s influence is greater in the world than man s.'' The affirmative was taken by Mist; Geddes and Miss 'faylor, while Mr. Roht.

NEW POSTMASTER AND NEW POST- orricE. -This morning our postoffice changed hands arid also its place of resid- ence. For something like sixty years the citizens of Hayfield and vicinity have been getting their mail from the same brick building on Main street that has become a landmark and for over seventy years the Gairdmi family has been in second postmaster in the community, a Mr. Fraset, brother-in-law 61 Mrs. Mc- Kenzie of the Goderich road, being the first. At Mr. Gairdner's death, some nineteen years ago, he was succeeded by his daughter Mary, who in turn was succetded by another daughter, Margaret . who died this past summer. Since her death her brother John has been acting postmaster, hut owing to his resignation the office has passed out of the family and away from the well-known corner. much to the regret of all. However, we expect Woods and his assistant Mr. 1>rehman. will ably fill the position. For the present Mr. th-ehman s tailnr shop has been fitted up to do duty as an office and in the spring it is the Doctor's intention to build. There is a good deal of quiet amuse- ment in the eastern part of the riding over the zealous manner in which Mr. Musgrave is guarding the interest. of the Conservative candidate in this campaign. It is well known that Mr. Bowman was not anxious to be a candidate again. preferring to drop into the vacant post - mastership of Wingham. If he is elected. it is understood that Mr. Musgrove is to get the place; if Mr. Bowman is defeated the postmastership is to be his and Mr. Musgrove will have to do without. It is quite easy to figure out why Mr. Mungrove is even more anxious than Mr. *Bowman himself that the latter should be Ielected. •
